2018 Ford Edge vs. 2018 Chevrolet Traverse

An SUV can make a great family hauler, offering a balance of
efficiency, capability, and comfort. But which SUV should you choose? This
article will look at the 2018 Ford Edge and the 2018 Chevrolet Traverse to find
out which of these competitors comes out on top.

Engine Options

The 2018 FordEdge takes the lead right off the bat by offering
three different engines as opposed to the two that are available in the
Chevrolet Traverse. The latter comes with a standard 3.6-liter V6 and also
offers a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, both paired with a nine-speed automatic
transmission. The standard engine of the Ford Edge is a 2.0-liter EcoBoost® engine paired to a six-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission to deliver 245
horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. The available 3.5-liter Ti-VCT V6 engine is
capable of generating 280 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. A 315-horsepower
rated 2.7-liter V6 EcoBoost® engine powers the Ford Edge Sport.

Design

These two competitors both offer options in the way of design
and styling by providing a selection of attractive trim levels with varying
wheels, grilles, and features. Each offers leather trim in their spacious
cabins, and each offers a panoramic sunroof. The Ford Edge is also available
with unique ambient lighting standard on the Titanium and Sport trims. This
lighting illuminates certain areas of the cabin with colors like Ice Blue®,
orange, or green, so the cabin's atmosphere can be adjusted to the mood. The
Ford Edge offers an SEL Sport Appearance Package which adds eye-catching
touches like a rear spoiler and premium cloth seats with Umber Miko®
suede inserts.

More options and greater fuel efficiency make the Edge the
better choice. Test-drive the 2018 Ford Edge at Tipton Ford.
